I remember when it flooded all the fields on 65 between Montgomery and Prattville. Also when it flooded at Clark's landing in Autaugaville and the caskets came out of the ground in that little cemetery by Clark's Landing.

Yes it was 90 now seeing that March date. Ruined our turkey season that year on the farm I hunted along the river. That’s back when season started early
